It looks like it flipped over all on it's own. Is this some form of submission? Did it actually want a belly rub???? I want to believe it did. Haha. x3 I don't see how it would be a way to defend itself because the belly is a vulnerable place... Isn't it hard for lizards to breathe flipped on their backs?

It's my understanding that uromastix do this as a rejection behavior to spurn a male's advancements. So it did flip over on it's own but that is not necessarily a "cute" thing. More likely it was stressed and hoping the person would leave it alone.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
